The Machina rear splash guard for the Triumph Tiger 900 (2024+) mounts directly to the swingarm and intercepts rear wheel spray before it reaches the pillion seat and your kit — keeping your passenger dry and your bags cleaner on every wet road. The Tiger 900's open undertail design means pillion spray is a real problem on tour; this guard is the fix.
The Premium variant uses a round aluminium tube stay for a stiffer, more durable fit than the Standard — the better choice for heavy touring riders who load up two-up regularly. Both bolt to existing swingarm hardware with no drilling and no permanent modification. The guard is built from ABS, finished in black, and designed specifically for the 2024+ Tiger 900 platform with its extended swingarm geometry.
Fits Tiger 900 GT, Rally, and Rally Pro (2024+). Compatible with OEM and most aftermarket pannier frames — mounts low at the swingarm, well below the subframe luggage points. Designed and tested on Indian roads by MACHINA.

Yes. The Machina guard mounts to the swingarm and intercepts rear wheel spray before it reaches the pillion seat. The Tiger 900's open undertail design makes this a meaningful upgrade — your passenger stays noticeably drier on wet roads.
Yes. The guard shields the gap between the rear tyre and undertail, reducing spray directed at bags and soft luggage on long touring days.
Yes. It bolts to existing hardware on the swingarm — no drilling, no permanent modification to the bike.
The Premium uses a round aluminium tube stay instead of the Standard's mild steel plate — it's stiffer and more durable over time, especially under heavy touring loads. If you regularly ride two-up or loaded, the Premium is the better long-term choice.
Yes — this product is designed for the 2024+ Tiger 900 specifically. The 2024 model received an extended swingarm that changed the rear bracket geometry. Riders on 2020–2023 Tiger 900 models should check for a separate compatible listing.
Yes. The guard mounts low at the swingarm, well below the subframe pannier mounting points, and does not interfere with OEM Tiger 900 luggage systems or most aftermarket pannier frames.
